> <ivodd> h01ger: what does 'fails to purge' mean? the purge fails (gives > errors) or the purge 'succeeds', but files are left?
The failures intended to be raised to serious are all the cases where maintainer scripts will fail - ususally in some corner cases depending on (worst-case but dependency-wise valid) ordering of removal and purge of the involved packages. All known bugs of this kind (as of Dec.) are filed. New ones will either be regressions or be newly introduced with new packages. The piuparts failures of these already block migration, so filing the corresponding bugs as serious seems to be justified. In the old times, there were many packages using e.g. ucf incorrectly, and would have caused a lot of RC bugs, but these have been fixed over the years. Leaving files around after purge is a separate that will continue to be filed as important. Andreas
